Rose moaned as she tried to get up, pain lancing through her body as she forced her eyes open.

“Fuck, fuck, fuck.” She cursed as even the smallest movement caused agony so great that she saw black spots before her eyes. “Breathe,” she commanded, as a groan escaped her lips in retaliation at the movement of her broken ribs.

She stifled the moans that were rumbling up her throat, silence and stealth were her friends now. She wasn’t stupid enough to think that fucker Razor hadn’t instructed the guards to alert him when she woke. “You need to focus, heal yourself, and then get the hell out of here,” She told herself firmly.

Rose lay back onto the soft bed, murmuring quietly a simple healing spell, and grinding her teeth when it went to work. The soft sounds of her bones knitting back together were all she heard, apart from the blood pumping so fast through her system it was echoing in her ears. Bones, bumps, bruises and split skin, were soon almost healed, gingerly rising to go to the bathroom. She rinsed her face, redid her hair with her silver sticks, then returned to redress in clean clothes, clothes that didn’t stink of her own and Razor’s blood. That’d be far too easy for Razor or his Demon guards to track, and she was definitely not going to make it easy for them to find her.
